Abstract
Objective: To examine sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of persons hospitalized in five psychiatric hospitals from regions with different structural characteristics compared with persons hospitalized voluntarily.
Methods: Descriptive analyses of routine data on approximately 57000 cases of 33000 patients treated for a primary ICD-10 psychiatric diagnosis at one of the participating hospitals from 2016 to 2019.
Results: Admission rates, length of stay, rates of further coercive measures, sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the affected persons differ between the different regions.
Conclusion: There are considerable regional differences between regulations and implementation of the admission procedures and the sample. Causal relationships between regional specifics and the results cannot be inferred.
